[Closed] Garmin Communicator Plugin issues...

Been getting this, I just logout, disconnect and login again till it sees my device. PIA but works eventually 🙄

It's the only thing I use Safari for on my Mac

This happened to me a few days ago- for some reason Chrome had started blocking the pop-up for the Garmin communicator. I just clicked at the top the little icon that says 'always allow pop-ups for this site' and it was fine again.

No idea why it started doing that, had been fine for ages before.

I'm manually importing into Garmin Connect now which oddly doesn't use the plugin anyway. It uses Garmin Express to auto-sync but I uninstalled it after I was having problems with rides getting deleted. It's extra bloat and I don't trust it.

Sometimes I manage to get the Bluetooth sync to work on my phone to upload but it's rare it works so I don't generally bother.

Anyway, I then have Strava and others connected to Garmin Connect and after uploading to Connect it does the job of syncing to the others so I don't need the plugin any more to upload to Strava.

It's garmin express now, will auto up load to garmin connect and strava as soon as you plug in your garmin

there's a Garmin app for mac that auto downloads from your device, and uploads it to Garmin Connect

edit: as above!

Ahh - will look into Garmin express, will also check my ad-blocker software.

Mines been fine and dandy, though I use safari and express. Also I use the auto uploader and have had no problems at all.

That's not to say in the early days I didnt, certainly with express, but Garmin sorted that out back in July IIRC.

Anyhoos, mines fine,

this happened to me with firefox the other day. i had somehow disabled the plugin. just went to tools-add ons and re-enabled it, all good now
